- Halo 2 & Vista Problems -
As the UAC tries to verify every program, in some cases numerous times,
with an endless barrage of highly annoying "Do you want to install/run this
program" windows. Virtually every power user and gamer deactivates the UAC

enabled in order for Halo 2 to operate. Furthermore, the game will not run
until one completes the registration for a Games for Windows - Live! account

down.
